793906 - disable desktop support while we get B2G going.

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

[Ben Adida [:benadida]]

Some tweaks for B2G will surely bust the desktop builds, so let's disable it for anything other than B2G.

It's disabled by default so I guess disabling the tests would be the main thing.
If we really need to disable the desktop UI, commenting out the bodies of SignInToWebsiteUX_init and SignInToWebsiteUX_uninit should cover most, if not all, of it.

Thanks also, Matt, for the additional suggestion you made on irc that we should comment this out:

I like this approach.  Very easy to switch things back on again.

navigator.id is not disabled in 19.0a1 (2012-10-31) on OSX when pref 
dom.identity.enabled is true.

The DOM code will run but the UI should be disabled. The pref is for the DOM code. Is that not what you're seeing? Is this a problem?

Comment 9

[John Morrison [:jrgm]]

Hmm, so, yes, the native navigator.id is available, but the UI is disabled. 
I really think native navigator.id should not be available though.

[Matthew N. [:MattN] (huge backlog; PM if requests are blocking you)]

Well, it's not available by default.  The user would have to flip the pref to use it and we haven't widely told people to do so.

John: I think this is sufficiently disabled as far as I meant it when I opened the bug originally. I'm hoping you're okay with me re-closing it :)
